Mid-East students pursue CDA credentials through signing day

Early Childhood Education seniors at Mid-East Career and Technology Centers have committed to completing Child Development Associate training during Ohio’s first statewide Health and Human Services Signing Day, creating a pathway to nationally recognized early childhood education credentials, according to a community announcement. The signing event took place in early October in Zanesville. Students who complete the Child Development Associate, or CDA, program will work toward credentials that can support career advancement in a variety of early childhood education settings. The CDA training program prepares students to work with children from birth through age 5 and helps them develop skills sought by employers in the early childhood field, according to the announcement. “We are extremely proud of our Early Childhood Education students for taking this important first step toward a very meaningful and rewarding career,” said Katie Lucas, the Early Childhood Education instructor. “We know that when given the opportunity to become early childhood educators, our students will impact the lives of many young children, playing a pivotal role in facilitating learning and development during the formative years.” Students enrolled in Mid-East’s CDA program complete 120 hours of child development education coursework across eight content areas.

PICKERINGTON − Four-time state qualifiers leading the way on the biggest postseason stages is becoming a hallmark for area cross country. Shenandoah senior Ida Estadt and John Glenn senior Ashlynn Kuklica headlined a remarkable effort on Saturday, Oct. 31 at the OHSAA Regional Cross Country Championships at Pickerington North High School, each punching their fourth consecutive ticket to the OHSAA State Cross Country Championships. Estadt set the pace for the day by capturing her second consecutive Division IV individual regional title, crossing the finish line with a personal best time of 18:16.5 — nearly 19 seconds in front of runner-up Chloe Meholovitch of Shadyside. Meanwhile, Kuklica capped her legendary high school cross country career by securing a 7th-place finish in the Division II race with a season best time of 18:49.0 to lock up her fourth straight trip to state. “Back to regionals and a new PR — incredible.

U.S. Department of Education approves Ohio’s Returning Education to the States Waiver

On Friday, the U.S. Department of Education (the Department) announced it has granted approval of Ohio’s Returning Education to the States (RES) Waiver. This approval grants the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce (ODEW) new flexibilities to use federal dollars more effectively on state priorities and improving student outcomes. Ohio is the eighth state to receive a RES waiver, joining Iowa, Louisiana, Indiana, Vermont, Arkansas, South Dakota, and Mississippi. This waiver allows Ohio to consolidate over $38 million in federal funds through 2029, bringing the total across all eight approved states to over $158 million, and unlocking unprecedented flexibility to better serve students and families. ODEW plans to leverage these funds to target literacy, accelerated learning, workforce readiness, and student wellness approaches that enable them to reach their full potential, rather than bureaucratic tasks and fragmented, program-specific activities. “Ohio has already proven it is ready to meet the moment in education, recently boasting a five-year high in reading proficiency by aggressively incorporating evidence-based literacy instruction,” said U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. “By embracing new flexibilities and aligning federal resources with Ohio’s own priorities, the state is driving exciting innovation that puts students and workforce readiness at the center.

What school levies and bond issues might be on your ballot this week? Let's review.

Two other districts, Pickerington Local and Jefferson Local Schools, are seeking tax levies for school funding and permanent improvements.
